Popular Post eyeguy 54 Posted April 20, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted April 20, 2016 Tried it different. A little olive oil, lemon pepper and cajon powder. And of corse a bit more pepper before eating. A little pinot grigio and some orange peppers. This was really good ! bobberineyes, Mike89, reinhard1 and 6 others 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmd1 Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 You know when my son and i fished at leech, we caught several northerns along with eyes. I liked the northern better than walleye, I think it is just a tighter meat than the others. I even bought some here in phoenix and fried them up. But for the cost of them here, i could have flown back to leech and caught them myself. Great dinner.

So, now I have to keep and clean a few slimers once in a while! reinhard1, eyeguy 54 and RebelSS 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smurfy Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 looks good eyeguy!! I prefer pike over eyes also. not only that there fun to fish for!!!!!!! over 4 lbs I take the y-bones out. that goes into pickling material. I smoke 2-3 lb pike. next to eating skin on sunfish nords are my next favorite fish to eat!!!!!! eyeguy 54 and RebelSS 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dotch Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 I started out eating northern as a lad so when walleye hit the plate, it was a nice change but still liked the northern better. Interesting to see some of the toys we've all got for grilling. I like the perforated frying pan idea! RebelSS and eyeguy 54 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eyeguy 54 Posted April 20, 2016 Author Share Posted April 20, 2016 I use the pan a lot for salmon. great for veggies also. but wear a thick leather glove when you grab the handle after a couple beers! ! OUCH only once... lol for sure will do northern this way again, really good! Dotch, leech~~, bobberineyes and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could probably remove the wood in the handle and eliminate the eventual leechlake grill fire thingy! smurfy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RebelSS Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 Looks great to me!!! Walleye or northerns, I'll take either one. Both are great, IMO. I like norheren like that, and waldos in beer batter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobberineyes Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 That does look really tasty eyeguy, usually early on the eyes are snapping and my dad is putting nortens in the well, he's no dummy . RebelSS 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

delcecchi Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 Try fish in parchment paper (can use tinfoil in a pinch, plus it protects you against government mind control rays) Like this one (pike instead of cod) Foil-Roasted Cod with Herbed Vegetables Published December 1, 2006. Add to Favorites Share: Shopping list Email Print Why this recipe works: We love baked fish recipes, especially as the highlight of a quick and easy weeknight meal. For a recipe that made swift work of cleanup, we roasted each fish fillet in its own foil pouch along with vegetables and flavorful ingredients like thyme and basil. Once our recipe’s fish and vegetables were cooked through, we transferred all of the foil’s contents to a plate and discarded the foil. less Serves 4 Ingredients 1 medium zucchini, halved lengthwise and cut into thin half moons 1 fennel bulb, trimmed, halved, cored, and sliced thin 2 garlic cloves, minced 6 scallions, sliced thin 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil 1 teaspoon dried thyme 1/4 cup dry white wine or dry white vermouth Salt and pepper 4 boneless, skinless cod fillets ( about 2 pounds ) 4 tablespoons unsalted butter Instructions 1. Adjust oven rack to lowest position and heat oven to 450 degrees. Combine zucchini, fennel, garlic, scallions, basil, thyme, wine, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper in large bowl. 2. Lay four 14-inch-long pieces of foil on work surface. Place one fillet on lower half of each piece of foil and season with salt and pepper. Top each fillet with one-quarter of vegetable mixture and 1 tablespoon butter. Fold foil over fish and vegetables and crimp edges together to form 4 packets. 3. Arrange packets in single layer on rimmed baking sheet and cook until vegetables are tender and fish is just cooked through, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer packets to individual plates and carefully cut open with scissors, being careful to avoid steam. Serve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roony Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 That northern looks delicious! I know the big thing is getting out the y-bones but honestly I don't find it to be much of a hardship to remove them while I'm eating. I like them pan fried as good as anything.

Sounds like a pretty lucrative business venture for a guy that can't keep the hammer-handles off his line Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
